What the population numbers don't tell - how many have been resubmits that boost the pops? Then how many have really nice centering. How many have nice registration. How many are crease free (minimum EX 5)? How many are we now really left with? Who knows, but not that many.

[Reggiejackson563]

Well there's only 16 of the sweet Corporal 150/25 three 4s two 4.5s and two 5s The other 9 are lower

So I am understanding this, the thread you started by exclaiming a "Wow" in regards to the price of the $16K Cobb sold in Goodwin is the one you purchased? If so, I can't say I've seen that before on this board.

Either way, congrats on a nice card, and hopefully the price will continue to rise. (I think threads like this certainly can't hurt in that capacity.)

Pop numbers for the green cobby are tougher to determine due to SGC's pop report but my best combined guess is;

Green Cobb - 1252
'52 Mantle - 1955

Really nice centering - check!
Nice registration - check!
Crease and wrinkle free - check! But not minimum EX 5
Not as cool as Jeff's miscut - check!

There is a PSA 7 right now in Memory Lane. Let's guess what that will go for. I'm thinking $48K.

Who knows what the Memory Lane 7 will end at. The image/registration on this example is quite hideous though in my opinion.

[MR RAREBACK]

I say the green Cobb psa 7 goes for 88,000

[Reggiejackson563]

What is PSA waiting for this card has been selling strong in all grades but the smr guide price has not moved...

Yep, disgusting. Nobody else bid on it, okay?

But it is a rare 3D t206 Green Cobb.

+1 Tony.

Not all Cobbs were created equal. Seems like 150 series examples are a bolder, deeper green...and crisper clarity, right?

Even the PSA 7 Cobb Bat Off in ML seems to have registration/clarity issues.

Yes. I've noticed the same thing regarding Planks: the 150 Series is a deeper blue.

+1 to that. The registration/clarity issues would be a deal breaker for me.
